You make it sound so dirty Mike.

This board can be so much more value to men who wear kilts than just talking about "underwear or regimental", "matching leather or non-matching". It can actually address the real issues that are in front of those men who choose to wear the kilt as a contemporary practical garment.

I posted a link to an editorial cartoon on CNN.com and made it clear that the topic was the image of a WWII Axis Power Supporter with a KILT on. Quite obviously the discussion was about the kilt and an unexpected affiliation with such a group. David, curteously, deleted it pending review. I did not see the justification for that but I appreciate his curtousy.

SO, since it can't be spoken about on this forum, I spoke about it with my wife and received some very intersting thoughts that I expected the members here to be intersted in. After all, if there is a chance that society considers something about you to be a indicator of something negative you might want to know about it wouldn't you?

I made a fairly strong effort to open the discussion without compromising the "rules" and without alluding to any censorship by the moderators. As of the last time I looked most if not all the respondents were behaving and contributing some informative feedback. That sounds like a good discussion.

I still think the topic is a good one and an appropriate one. Yes it needs to be discussed with some self-disipline and the members are doing that. If someone strays, delete that post, not the entire thread. By killing the thread you loose a lot of good thoughts along with the bath water.

This board is like a self chlorinating pool where those who promote divisive behavior are quickly run off by the members not the moderators.
